Emma Raducana? winstonThink

I think Katrina is the best female player I’ve seen in his channel

Winston, she is insanely good! Could easily play tournaments in SoCal and win them. One of the best players on your channel yet. Nice work.

So impressive how Katrina ate all of Winston’s serves and immediately took control of her return points.

Retired? Wow, she's still got it. Low flat hard shots that are at times short and super hard to return. Reminds me of my main hitting partner. Super hard to play against. Keep it up Winston! M

Damn Katrina's got game! Gotta say Winston, every time I tune in it feels like you've progressed just that bit more, groundstrokes looking solid!

Your channel is awesome, Winston! Love watching you play

that Katrina first serve was money. Very smooth and crisp

Katrina's a boss! Winston, I thought you hit some really nice shots by the way.

This match highlights for me how much winning tennis is about who can hit those 7/10 level shots in more. That constant pressure is just so tough to withstand when your opponent won’t miss those types of shots. Well done on both sides - great ball striking by both of you!

That’s called modern tennis not real tennis. You cannot stand on the baseline and use a 2HBH for ever. You must learn the real game of tennis. And the giant artificial rackets and strings used today eliminate most of the actual game of tennis, it’s destroyed the game. Winston would have won 3-4 games if he played the way I’ve recommended. Standing on the baseline won’t get you far.

Super impressive ground strokes. Yes, that second point when she was closer to the camera was jaw dropping.

Damn, her backhand is vicious.

Katrina has a solid game! Good serve and groundies.

She’s probably still near a 6.0 USTA Women’s level. All the bedrock shots and essentials are still there; it’s clear to see that she was a professional/tour-level player. That ingrained ability is not going to just go away. As a flat hitter myself, a huge key would be to redirect with savvy counterpunching and pull her out of position. She had plenty of time to set-up on almost all of her shots and returns. Some sharper-angled drives would have taken her out of her comfort zone and probably elicited some errors/overhitting on her big groundies. Expose some potential movement issues. She likes taking a big cut at the ball off both sides, right in her wheelhouse. Take that away from her with super-deep drives into the corners or even sharper angles a few feet past the service line, and her rhythm could break. Easier said than done! Fun to watch 💪

That forehand swing is wild. Great tennis!

Your a good man Winston Katrina has that pro quality hard to put a number on that kind of experience

Katrina's forehand is amazing. Wow!

Katrina, I would estimate her as USTA 5.5 and UTR 11-12 - really good player. Such smooth big strokes and a serve that would rival most men. Props for coming back to play after becoming a Mom.

Katrina clearly plays at a very high level! You did well to get a game Winston seeing that she's playing pro level tennis. Great match👍

She is a strong player. She is hitting many deep and hard shots - it ends up being a lot to deal with if you don't always play people who can do that. On top of that, her serve was strong. You had some good opportunities to sneak into net and put away shots, but you were probably focused on figuring out her baseline game rather than experiment in that set.

Amazing player!

I like at 3:55 she called her own shot out because Winston was too far away and was going to give her the point. Pure class to call your own shot out.

Like most female tennis players, and it’s very common in the women’s tour, there is no strategy except to hit the ball hard. This causes a lot of misses. Exceptions are Ash Barty, whom you could always see working the point, and perhaps a couple of others in the current women’s line up.

Those Belarusians don't play around..so much effortless power. I would rank her at least USTA 5.0.

She called few balls out that were for sure in!

nice hitting there 👍

@WinstonDu Hey man, most probably you answered this in the past but I was wondering what camera you use to record the matches. Thanks in advance for the response :)

Katrina can generate easy power, almost looks simple for her.

Katrina is very arresting.

Haven’t seen pro hurricane tour string in a while. Hahah

Well. The 100th highest female utr right now is Yastremska at 12.02. Im going to say this lady in th video is probably around 10 utr. She's really good.

She's a beast! Very powerful.

Ha! She was t even playing at her best and she’s deadly! Love it!

I don’t know how far “back in the day” was but it seems like she could get back into pro form pretty easily if she wanted to. Very nice game.

Great Tennis! She has that deceptive Power, Control, Consistency! Wish I could gage my skills against a Pro one day! Great Job Winston!

I think Dylan Charlap and Govind would be a crazy matchup!

Great content! You should also ask tennis with Ema

That one slice of you bro

Katrina vs Ema will be interesting 🎉

She is at a very high level, I don't know about her consistency(you was whiped out of the court😁😁)but her strokes have high quality...something in the ntrp 5.5/6.0 or 11 usta

She has the best racket I have ever played with. Great power and control

Hey Winston I’m not gonna be here and tell you everything you do wrong but the one tip I can help you with, is you should stand a few feet back from the baseline on serves.

You need to get a fence top camera mount so you can see the far court better.

My dream is to be able to take one game off against my favorite player Jelena Ostapenko, whose UTR is 12.63. I hope we get an update on Katrina's UTR so I can compare her to Ostapenko and I can measure the feasibility of my dream.

@@cekinekshn you fell into the handicapped trap. The equipment today is a handicap. It provides everything for the player. Real pro sports like MLB and NFL and NBA do not change their main equipment to make it easier. The talent must come from within. Tennis today cannot be compared to when players had to use real equipment to play. Todays players are watered down. Many don’t belong in professional ranks, if they had to use traditional equipment they could not compete. They need the assistance. If MLB allowed composite bats as opposed to the solid wood bats used for the past 120 years, they would be hitting 700 foot HR’s its east when you have artificial equipment like tennis adopted. They did it for $$. And the men’s game now mirrors the woman’s game. They both stand on the baseline. They both use 2HBH’s, the mens game became the women’s game. If you think I’m wrong take original equipment and try to play. Ability drops 75% immediately. The stats today are all skewed. You can’t compare anyone today to someone who won a GS in 78 etc. they had no assistance. The talent had to come from them. Today the shots are made using the artificial strings. When you change the equipment you lose the complexity of the game. Also todays players don’t even know how to volley mid court. Drop volley. S/V. Sorry but These are all 100% facts.

6:30 yup, ik that feeling far too well

her first serve % is crazy good

@huyngo2655

12 күн бұрын

86% first serves in

I'd rate her around a UTR 10.5 - 11.0. Thing is, she looks better than her real rating is, because she's playing someone that she can move around. Also, have a look at other players at that level; they're able to rally consistently. Kat did well for maybe the first 5 shots or so, but then is inconsistent after that. The higher level players would just grind their matches against her and she would win many points, yes, but ultimately wouldnt win many games. And a UTR is based on how many GAMES people win, not their power / style.

She’s good

She put you in tail spin lol had you off your game

Damn

5.5

Dang. Finally some female tennis player who can be called as a "Pro or Former pro"

ur fortunate at least she didn't take your family jewels

She's a female 5.5 - 6.0, and she could beat some USTA 5.0's I know. I'd have trouble beating her as a male 5.0
